Answer:

65/100 or 0.65

Explanation:

To answer this problem all you have to do is subtract 35%.If an A+ is an 100 percent,Then subtract 100 and 35 giving you 65 percent.

But if you do not know how to turn a fraction or decimal,then i will show you.every time you have a number in the tens place,add a zero and the add the decimal and finally add 65 which making look like this:0.65.

Fraction is easy to do as long as you do a number out of 100,like this:65/100.

simple :)
